Abstract: Integration processes in Europe as well as globalization trends create new possibilities for enterprises.

The paper elaborates on internationalizing of exchange sphere of enterprises in Poland and Slovakia, which is mainly realized by foreign trade. Thus, the paper focuses on export and import transactions as the most popular form of internationalization of enterprises.
